    Hello from Central Texas

    Hello from Marble Falls, Texas. A little about myself, I own a collision shop and build custom cars and trucks one project at a time. Our latest is a 2002 Silverado, which happens to belong to me. I've been building stuff for everyone else and now it's time to build mine. We just finish all the body mods including shaving the body line, graphing a 2009 Suburban/Tahoe frt clip and Suburban frt fenders into the bedsides. Many many modifications and many many hours to complete. The truck has a 4.3 and 5 spd now but sitting on the shop floor is a 5.3 and 4L80E destined to grace the frt frame rails with turbo and intercooler. This is where I need your guys help, converting to a turbo and getting the right parts to go together.
    Look forward to asking stupid questions and getting some learning from ya'll.
    Thanks,
    Ray
